Sexual Health and STI Testing FAQ’s
Do you offer a full sexual health screening?
Yes we do! Collected via blood tests and urine anaylsis. Please speak to your doctor for more information regarding a full sexual health test.
I think I've been exposed to HIV?
If you think you’ve been exposed to HIV, you should ideally see a doctor as soon as possible. PEP is only thought to be effective within 72 hours. PEP can have some side effects and may react with other drugs you are taking.
Are STI's and STD's the same?
STD stands for “sexually transmitted disease,” and STI stands for “sexually transmitted infection.” But no matter which term people use, they’re talking about the same thing: infections that get passed from one person to another during sexual activity.
